Whoaaa Nellie.

I don’t believe in intergenerational finger pointing like that. It’s not productive.

Besides, older generations have no leg to stand on. I see everyone from millennials to boomers indulging in the exact same addictive algos, sharing and acting in misinformation. And they have no excuse because they grew up with the “old internet.” Hence it doesn’t matter; everyone, in aggregate, is doing this.

I just meant to highlight the information hygiene problem on Lemmy, specifically. It really bothers me, but it doesn’t seem to bother most users, old or young, which worries me.
